WOW where did that come from? Maybe I should leave a message to Ringo,Your cd Liverpool 8 really sucks Ringo!! I still cant get past the first song,which blows to.Sorry Ringo hey you think Pete Best will sign something for me? Sounds to me like he might be a little drunk.Oh yeah Peace and Love Peace and love

If he doesn't want to answer all his mail and sign things anymore, I understand. I'm sure he's completely overloaded with things and after 68 years, he's had enough. But yeah, his message did come off a little rude. Weird!

He doesn't sound grumpy to me...he sounds exhausted & exasperated. He's given a lot over the years, still signs tons of stuff when he's out on tour (which he also still does pretty often), and I think he deserves his space after all these years.Who knows what's going on in his life? How about some gratitude for all he's given, and still gives (he could just retire you know? He is 68- most folks already have at that age) as opposed to indignation over a pretty reasonable request? I think it was uncomfortable for him to do, and that showed a bit, but if he needs to set boundaries, I think that's fine. He also makes a point, amidst the exhaustion & exasperation, to note that this is sent out with "peace & love" folks. The Beatles gave & still give a lot. They are human, not the property of ever demanding Beatle fans/fanatics. Blessings!
